Hi PopeyeSailor,

Thanks for your email.

well i tried to disable/enable , but was unable to enable.

Disabled hdisk56 fscsi1
Disabled hdisk56 fscsi1
Enabled hdisk56 fscsi3
Enabled hdisk56 fscsi3

finally i run reducevg and remove the disk.

when i run cfgmgr after that i was not able to add the device back it was not showing any device.

there are few challenges i am facing now . the missing device was from the 3par storage but i do not have the mapping between lunid and the hdisk# ? since storage team provide the lunid but hdisk# device is not found.

how to identify if the lunid is attached to the server ?

Hi PopeyeSailor,

you need to coordinate with your storage team how you will see the LUNID. Or if you are the Admin fo rStorage, you may see this in Storage Director.
